“In order to say yes to your priorities, you have to be willing to say no to something else”

There was a time in my life when I found it critically important to be the best. No matter what the project or task, I made it my responsibility to go above and beyond, to over perform and out perform everyone else. Part of it stemmed from a need to please others so I wouldn’t have to face my insecurities and feelings of inadequacy stemming from my childhood…but mostly, it was a subconscious addiction. I was so used to giving 110%, I never really stopped to think about the cost. Continue reading “It’s ok to be ok”→

Very often, we set a goal for ourselves and we visualize its success, we plan for it, we pray about it, and then we wait for it to happen. We wait for the connections to show up in our lives, we wait for the opportunity to find us – the phone call, the unexpected job offer etc… and while these instances do occur, there is still one tried and tested method of accomplishing your goals, and it’s so simple that it can be explained in 3 words: do the work.

It is 100% your responsibility to make things happen. Don’t wait for the opportunity, go out and find it.

If you can’t find a way, make a way.

So the next time you find yourself sitting on the sidelines of your life, wishing things would change, or that something outside of you will happen and that event will be the catalyst for change – be that catalyst. Take the bull by the horns, take the reigns of your life and find a way. Trust that you know enough, you have enough, you are prepared enough, you are deserving enough – then go get it!

Whenever you’re embarking on a journey, it’s important to become at peace with your past, and learn from those issues or insecurities that might be holding you back.

My client Kate had over 100lbs to loose, but she confided in me that she had been struggling with her weight since childhood, she had established an unhealthy relationship with food and often turned to the fast food drive-thru in response to just about any issue she was feeling that the time.

Whether it’s a road trip, or a dream…you’re more likely to get to where you want to be by first having a good understanding of where you are. Want a new job? Assess your skills. Want to loose weight? Get on a scale and take note of your starting weight. Want to buy a house? Review your finances and your credit. By taking a long hard look at where you are today, you’re better able to determine what’s needed to move you forward.

Have you ever had a goal that just lingered for years with absolutely no progress. Like you’ve talking to family and friends about the goal, you thought about the goal, but year after year all you’ve done is talk about it and absolutely nothing changes…

I call this phase planner paralysis. It’s that comforting phase of making and remaking plans and strategies for the change, without the change happening.

Well, I have the answer to that conundrum!

Want to start seeing your dreams and seeing that change? Here’s the secret (that’s not so secret) ACT. Take action, regardless of how big or small. Do one thing right TODAY that’ll bring you closer to your goal.
